From: mummy_bear67 on 1 Jan 2010 18:05 hi i have a thomson router and a toshiba laptop. i have installed the router and it says i am connected with full signal strength, but when i try to open an internet explorer page it says it cannot display the page. i have gone into internet options and have gone into connection doctor but it says there is no problem with the connection. i then tried to reinstall the router and it said to check static DNS entry. can anyone please help? thanks, julie.
From: Chuck on 4 Jan 2010 00:22 What is the router connected to? Cable, DSL ? Router and modem model numbers ? Usually Cable residential service assigns a dynamic address to the cable modem. The router should see an address for the LAN side of the modem. If the IP has locked service to the MAC address of your computer when it is directly connected to the modem, you will need to set the router to mimic the MAC address of the computer. Routers may need to be set to find the modem at an address that usually is something like 192.168.100.1 A router might be set to use this as the DNS source, or use dynamic DNS settings, or be set to a specific DNS address. Computers may also be set for a specific address to go to for DNS service.
